Plant City: You’re FINALLY Getting Chick-fil-A… Kinda
UPDATE: Sorry all! Just realized this was from a year ago. A few listeners sent me this article but nobody noticed this was a story from January… of 2018. And even though we’re all still probably writing 2018 on everything, alas, it’s 2019. I don’t know if this pop up location is still being used. -Geno
Remember last summer when all the excitement began? Plant City has waited for Chick-fil-A and there seemed to be hope. But it’s 2019 and the wait continues.
Apparently the chain wants to offer a temporary solution. The Plant City Observer reports that you’ll be able to get your Chick-fil-A fix starting tomorrow (January 8).
One of Lakeland’s Chick-fil-A restaurants will prepare the food and it’ll be served up at 118 W. Reynolds Street in Plant City during lunchtime from 11am to 2pm weekdays. It’ll be a limited menu of chicken sandwiches, nuggets, waffle potato chips and chocolate chunk cookies. They’ll have Coke drinks and YES, they will bring the Chick-fil-A dipping sauces.
It looks, however, like there’s one big thing missing: the waffle fries. Those are key for me. Sounds like they’re using this as a test to see if the demand is really there to open up a full restaurant. –Geno
